An Autumn Give-Away, Etsy-style!!

I am excited. SO excited. I would even go so far as to say that I am quite thrilled!

For one thing, today was a pleasant 80-something degrees. Tomorrow, it is supposed to be in the 70's. When I went for a walk this morning I could hear leaves crunching beneath my feet. I had hot tea with my breakfast this morning, for the first time in a while. And when I drove down the street this afternoon I couldn't help but notice that certain trees were starting to turn lovely shades of orange and red. You know what this means, folks. FALL! It is finally and at long-last arrived, and my little heart is happy and glad to welcome it.

If you have been reading my blog for a little while, you know that around this time of year I get into a mood... a blissful, happy, dreamy, let's-all-wear-sweaters-and-drink-tea-and-cuddle-on-the-couch-all-day sort of mood. I can't help it... I just LOVE fall and everything that comes with it.

This year, I am passing on my love of all things autumn to all of you, in the form of a give-away!! And really, I could not be more excited about this particular give-away, because I am able to feature the Etsy shops of some of the girls I know and love, whether it be through blogging or otherwise. Oh, I am SO glad I can do this, because really, these ladies are all not only incredibly talented, but also super-sweet and totally loveable.

And now, let's take a peek at the wonderful things up for grabs, shall we??

by wishcake
Leafy felt wallet, mustard with teal leaves by yourwishcake. Also known as Kerri, or One of the Loveliest People Ever. I'll be honest, it was when I saw her brand-new batch of adorable fall-colored wallets that I knew I had to have a give-away-- the colors are so cheery and wonderful!

by ohhellofriend
Silver nature leaf cut-out earrings by oh, hello friend. This little lady has done amazingly well in the Etsy world, and no wonder. Not only do I want everything listed in her shop, but Danni also happens to be a true sweetie. With these beautiful earrings of hers, you can have leaves under your feet AND on your ears!

by joyful.star
Embroidered felt coffee-sleeve cozy by Joyful Star. (It looks like this one, but in blue and brown instead.) Ashley is pretty much a doll in every way. I've never had the privilege of meeting her in real life (just like many of these girls), but I'm sure that if I did I would love her even more. Everyone needs to wrap their hands around a good cup of coffee or tea when the weather turns cold-- and with this cute lil' cozy, that starbucks treat will be even more fun to drink.

by pinnedup
Yellow and gray leafy hair pin by Pinned Up. Yay, more leaves! Could there be anything more autumn-ish? This adorable little one comes to us from Miss Alyssa, who is a dear girl with a definite eye for the crafty and domestic.

by Little Lovelies
Red Posy Hair Clip by Little Lovelies. The ever-fabulous Morgan from Mrs. Priss has put together a shop full of very lovely indeed accessories for ladies both small and large, and I wish I could own them all, for myself and my little ladies. Also, this girl is a complete sweetheart, so there's that, too. This particular clip caught my eye because of the beautiful red color... just like an autumn tree.

by tankandtink
Home Sweet Home Print by tankandtink. Have you become accquainted with Molly June?? Because if not, you really should. She is pure sunshine and will definitely brighten your day. I really love this print of hers, because when cool weather and early dusk rolls around each year, there is nothing I yearn for more than home and all its comforts and blessings.

Be sure to check out these girls, and especially their Etsy shops. You never know what other treasures you will find, for all of them are simply full to the brim with lovely things!

In addition to this package of Etsy goodness, there is also a bonus give-away of a $10 Starbucks gift card.
Photobucket
Because there is nothing better than a Starbucks on a cold day (it's definitely one of my favorite things). So, that means there will be TWO special winners! Get your happy-dances ready, friends.

To enter, simply leave a comment on this post by October 8th, 2009. Tell me your favorite thing about fall if you wish-- I would love to hear how you celebrate and enjoy this beautiful season. If you so desire, you can blog about this give-away, and I'll give you an extra entry! Just leave me a second comment with the link to your post.

A big huge thank-you to all you Etsy girls, I am so grateful to be doing this giveaway. And thank you to all of you, my friends, for making things like this so fun. :)

I wish you all a most blissful and cozy, colorful and leaf-crunching, delightful autumn!

I get to be first! Yay me!

It's a dangerous thing for me to visit Etsy, by the way. Very dangerous indeed for my paypal account. Ahem. But for you? I'll "suffer". ;) HUGS! Di

Dianne Rigdon said...

Yikes forgot to talk about fall. Yes yes fall goodness. For some reason, the cooler temps and breezes make me take stock in blessings as I begin to prepare for the holidays. :) There.

Sami Jo said...

So many fun things and WOWzer these ladies are talented! Fall is also my favorite time of year, this year I'm not up to my same fall decoration craziness just yet (as I'm 9 mo. preggers) and I'm barely sitting here breathing UGH! Anyhow, usually we decorate our front step with straw bales, corn stalks, pumpkins, mums, and all the goodness... then I love to take our little one to the Berry Patch which has a petting zoo and a huge pumpkin patch and you get to go on a wagon ride behind a old tractor ride to go get your pumpkin and it brings you back to the big red barn where there are lots of goodies and you check out. So fun! Thanks for introducing me to all these gals - I love etsy treasures! Happy Fall, The Lady

Tristan said...

oh wow! i love everything! i love fall because its chilly and perfect..and ORANGE!

Belle said...

Another reason I cannot wait for Fall, especially dress-up fun season, is that we found a cute skeleton outfit for Brayden - now his dad will be able to find all of the important bones. I also love pumpkin pies and hot chocolate, weather that is cool, but not freezing, and all the lovely colors as the leaves begin to change!!

To see other reasons, check out my blog:

Mom said...

I was telling someone about your blog again. They were wondering if there is anything you don't do.:) Fall is wonderful! Remember the pressed leaves placemats we made? Remember raking leaves together in a big pile and jumping in them? Pumpkin streusel bread will be made this weekend, because pumpkin anything tastes better at this time of year.

Morgan said...

Fabulous giveaway, my lovely friend! Thank you so much for including my posy! Isn't Kerri's cute blonde head the perfect model for it? :)

Today was the first cool, breezy day in months and it reminded me of how much I love fall. The switch from summery tank tops to scarves and boots is the best! I absolutely can't wait to pick out pumpkins and carve them this year... with a third, tiny one for miss Maddie. :)

molly june. said...

i LOVE fall! for many reasons,being that we have no AC and 100+ is not fun, i LOVE sweaters and coats, and who doesnt love a good wind storm?!

Katy said...

I absolutely love the feeling fall brings. I love the pumpkins, I love the sweaters, scarves, hot drinks, the hats and boots, the skinny jeans and plaid shirt. I love that it gets chilly and it's not so hot. I love the leaves turning colors. I love the way people are in a happy mood. I love the thought of snuggling up on the couch with a warm blanket and your loved one, or animal, (hehe!) and watching season premieres of all the new shows that start again in the fall.

I just love the whole season. I never want to live in a state that doesn't have a fall season.

And I also love all these things your giving away and I want to win one please! ;-) heheehe!

Erika Johnson said...

Where to begin with the favorites of fall...I love the scents, growing up my mom always had yummy candles burning & pies baking. I love the colors of the leaves as the season comes, I love cuddling under a warm blanket when it's cold N crisp outside, and I love when the holiday creamers like pumpkin spice come out in the grocery store for my morning coffee.

Melissa said...

Everything is SO cute! I love fall nights... something about the crisp air, the leaves beginning to change colors and fall... and knowing that Halloween is right around the bend. There is nothing more enchanting than a spooky fall night. :)

Unknown said...

Favorite thing about fall: wearing Jeans and hoodies and flip flops, the cool weather, the leaves changing colors, and baking yummy treats.

Nelson said...

well my most fav part is the weather change and the beauitful colors that come out and not to mention oct is my bday month just a few more days cant wait!!!

Lisa said...

I don't know if I have a favorite. I love it all... the pumpkins, the yummy Starbucks drinks, the soups, the food in general, the weather, the decorations, the leaves... pretty much everything. :)

Lauryn said...

I just love fall-I don't thing there is one thing I can pick out. I like the sound the leaves make, and the chill in the air, making hearty food and baking and the aromas in the house. I'm so excited its here!

Shelby said...

I found your blog after reading a post from Lady of the House's blog...this is a fun giveaway! One of my favorite things about fall is picking out a new candle to make my house smell yummy and inviting.

spiffykerms said...

My favorite thing about fall is still the bright sunshine shining down on me on my walk to work. I love the crunching of the orange and fall colored leaves than are on the sidewalks. I love the crisp but yet not too cold wintery air.

I don't exactly celebrate fall persay. I just usually hop on the bandwagon to those going back to school and I actually "back to work" shop. If that makes sense. Even though I wasn't really off work. But I like fooling my brain like that ;) Great giveaway. I'd love to win the starbucks gift card. I rarely go to starbucks - rarely. I got a $20 g/c from a friend for Christmas and I only used the last of it a few days ago! It's my special treat, every once in a blue moon.

Anonymous said...

Tia said...

Wow! What beautiful things you are giving away! I am new to the blogging circuit and I love finding all of these amazing blogs to look at! I found you through Morgan (Mrs. Priss). I love fall because it is like a breath of fresh air and it ushers in the holiday season which I adore. I get to see so much more of my family during this season. This year I have a new son to celebrate the holidays with which makes me feel extra blessed! Thanks for sharing all of these beautiful creations as well as your lovely family. You can meet my family if you'd like at thebragers.shutterfly.com

Morgan said...

I love every single one of these things. So pretty!!

Besides the cooler temperatures, pretty leaves, and hot coffee drinks, my absolute favorite thing about Fall/October is my oldest son's birthday. I love celebrating my special little man, who will be 5 this year!

Sprinkel Queen said...

Oh the Lovelies that you have hear! What great Etsy and Blog friends that you have!!

I Love that part of fall where you can get any type of fluffy, furry, soft and cuddly throw imaginable and just snuggle up and watch the outside world change in just one afternoon! Read a great book and sip your tea! Ahh fall!

There's just something about this time of year that makes you feel GOOD inside!
The colors, the feel of a scarf around your neck, wearing your favorite hoodie or cardigan, sipping hot chocolate at the end of the day...I LOVE IT!
I love cuddling up with a blanket while watching tv with the husband at the end of the day.
I love the smell of the cool crisp air, I. Love. Fall.

sarah said...

My favorite thing about fall is the fact that it is football season. I adore it so much and it gives me a good reason to stay in all day on Saturday's and cheer on my Michigan Wolverines! (Go Blue!)

Brittany said...

Wow, all of those items are amazing! I love fall and considering here it was in the 100's for the first couple days of Autumn I am so glad it is cooling down. My favorite fall activities are laying at home with the wondows open, making pumpkin soup, driving to see the leaves change, and giving in to every urge to buy cute fall decor. love Fall!

Colleen Kuerth : Truly Noted said...

Fall is my absolute favorite time of year for so many reasons! I am lucky to live in a part of the country that changes color, from fiery reds to bright neon oranges that make the mountains look like they are on fire. I love to go to the fair or the apple orchard and breathe in all the great smells!

Now I am off to do a little blog about your give-away!

Alice said...

Definately the colours, I know it's cliche! xx

Elizabeth said...

What an adorable giveaway! My favorite thing about fall is my first sip of hot chocolate. I always get some the first day the weather drops below 80, which takes a while in Texas!

Doreen said...

Hot drinks, cooler temperatures--leaves changing--it's ALL good!! :) purposedrivenlife4you at gmail dot com

KEB said...

The excitement of getting out your fall clothes --sweater season--, and pumpkin spice lattes, mmmm!

lavlu@aol.com

Cute giveaway!

Sara said...

oooo, so exciting! We go to Disneyland every fall because it's so not crowded this time of year and the weather is just right. it's my favorite fall outing!

Victoria said...

I just came over from "The lady of the house" and I ended up reading back to June! :)

I absolutely love the chair you found for $8! It is perfect.

I copied the Butterfinger cookie recipe to try sometime...they sound delish.

I love all things fall! I always wonder if it is because I was born in Sept but I think I would love it anyway!

Becky said...

My favorite thing about fall is the changing leaves and everything flavored with pumpkin.

Esther said...

Just found your blog - I'm just entering the world of blog. I have always loved Fall, but I'm not sure why - I think it's the crisp, cool mornings and evenings (great sleeping weather), but warm, sunny days! And the color - oh the color!

alyssa said...

LOVE all of this stuff! I love absolutely everything about fall!!! The colors, the weather, warm drinks, fires in the fire pit. EVERYTHING. Mostly because it tells me that summer is finally gone :)

Thank you again for including my hair pin!!

PS this isn't really an entry, winning my own thing would kind of just be silly ;)

Lacey Bean said...

Anonymous said...

This is such a wonderful giveaway! I love the smell of the air in the fall, and here in New England, the trees are absolutely GORGEOUS (before the snow invades, hehe).

Thanks for hosting, I'll be posting about this on my blog, stuckintheplayground.blogspot.com!!

*CPA* Su said...

Honestly could you be any sweeter or more generous!! All of these prizes are FABULOUS!

My favorite things about fall are the cooler weather, the fun decor, the pumpkin patch...I just love it all! I was never really a "fall" girl until the last couple of years and now I love it!! :)

*CPA* Su said...

OK-you got me out of my blog hiatus too! ;-)

http://cpasu.blogspot.com/2009/10/check-this-out.html

sarah marie p said...

Wow. This is the coolest giveaway EVER, Talia! Oh, I love all the little goodies! They're all so lovely! And it's so neat that you featured stuff from Kerri, Danni, Ashley, Alyssa and Morgan! I love all of those girlies! I had never seen Molly June's stuff but that print is just adorable!

One of my favorite things about fall is that I can once again go on bike rides and walks again during the weekends -- and not late at night once everything has finally cooled off. Although you'd think that's what summer is for, summer in Fresno is WAY too hot for all that business. Since Bako has pretty much the same weather as Fresno, I think you know what I'm talking about! :)

I also love cooking yummy goodies like pumpkin bread! And cuddling under blankets!

Thanks again for this amazing giveaway! You are way too generous, lady!

SofiaLoves said...

Just found your blog and love it! =)
Fall - I love the changes it brings. I love to see the foliage, the fact I get to wear scarves again and also it brings Christmas a lot closer! Plus, fall brings so many beautiful sunrises and sunsets which I love to watch and photograph from time to time.
I can't wait to see more foliage and the Starbucks I get to drink! Yum! =)

Loving this giveaway. Making me realize I love fall more and more.

I can't believe how many entries there are! Awesome. I may as well give it a go - you never know...maybe your contest is the first I'll win! My favorite thing about fall is decorating the house and the chill in the air (but not to much chill). I decorated today and am in a very Autumn mood now!

Brittney Galloway said...

Wow, what a great giveaway! This is my first "fall," because all of my other falls were in FL! So excited to see the season change!

Kerri W. said...

Oh, Talia! You are the peachiest of peaches. :) Thank you for including one of my wallets in your giveaway - and thank you for being so ridiculously sweet.

My favorite things about fall: getting out jackets and scarves to wear, hot drinks, the cool breeze in the California air (around these parts, anyway!), knowing the holidays are right around the corner, and (of course) BAKED GOODS.

Heehee.

PS: If by some freak of nature I win this contest, I say you draw another name and I'll send the wallet to someone else!

natasha | sohobutterfly said...

I love cool, crisp walks in the off-leash park. That's what I love most about fall!!

jennym said...

Thanks for the fb reminder :-)

One of my favorite things about fall is school supplies. Nowadays, this starts in July, but when I was little (I sound so old), school didn't start until after Labor Day and we bought school supplies in the fall. I LOVE brand new notebooks full of fresh, unwritten sheets of paper, red pencils, folders and organizers and backpacks.....

And pumpkin pie.
Hope you're having a lovely fall day!

Fall is my absolute favorite time of year! I love pumpkin anything, especially lattes, bread, and anything that goes along with it. I love how the weather cools down and pulling out my scarves! Yay Fall!

I've read several of your blog entries, but never commented. It would be a little like sacrilege for me to abstain from leaving a libation to autumn though...

bonfires wrapped in cozy mittens,
chilly air that takes your mind out to fields where hayrides roll and the prickly pumpkin stems rest in rows.

If I wasn't reformed, I'd worship the fall-since I am-I'll appreciate it by my fire with New Beligium's Hoptober.

So sad I missed this before.

I love everything from the crisp air, the scent of outside, sweaters, baking, pumpkin EVERYTHING (even the cute pumpkins themselves), canning, apple cider...

110 COMMENTS! WOAH MAMA!!!

Well, I'm entering... and keeping my fingers crossed.

My favorite thing about fall is the weather. I love that you can wear warm clothes but don't have to bundle up so much you don't feel comfortable. I love that you drink hot coffee in the middle of the day. I love that everything is orange and red and yellow. And I LOVE the crisp smell in the air. I love FALL. Best season of the year. :-)

Wow!!! What a fantastic giveaway!!!! I have some/most of these etsy artists already in my favs!

What lovely blog, i am so glad I stumbles on it!

My favorite part of fall is the changes... I'm usually SICK of summer by August, so its always to joyous to see the temperature falling, and the clothing choices start changing, and the warm lattes being made, and the leaves changing.
Plus I love all the warm tones of amber that emerge everywhere!!! There's just soooo much I love about fall. ahh...

TALIA!!! My word, 116 comments! What a following you have! :) My favorite thing about fall is the weather finally cooling down. I never want to cook all summer long because of the heat, but once fall hits, it is all about soups, baking, casseroles, etc. You are a doll for having a giveaway. I almost feel guilty entering. ;)

Sunny said...

LOL, I guess I am NOT entering the giveaway anyway, I didn't realize your "remember to leave a comment, it's the last day" post was posted yesterday. Oops, I procrastinated too long and then haven't been on the computer much lately. Oh well, I will happily celebrate with whoever does get to win. :)
